Top thread Silverback, many thanks, there is so much valuable information here.
Soul Stealer too, spot on.... the UK is Hot as Fcuk for indoor growing now, but outdoor growing is not really taken seriously by many, when it should be.
As Silverback says, the lowering of the sun during the season [Northern Hemisphere] is really important to consider when choosing a site as is aiming for early morning sun to dry out damp buds. Having a good cover or excuse can save your skin.... be it hunting, fishing, birdwatching, .....always "plan on getting caught" and when you are doing something risky make sure you do not get caught for a whole lot more. Julian in his excellent "Massive Outdoor" thread talks about going around with excuses and get out clauses, take heed and act before you have a nasty scare or worse.
GPS units are great, just do not get caught with one with multiple garden locations on it .... Likewise, remember mobile phones pinpoint your movements for years to come. How long till some bright spark thinks of checking busted grow locations against mobile phone records ?
One thing to add of my own, for Mediterranean growers..... try some guerilla planting under Olive trees.... they are not very water agressive [like Pines] and can shade the plant so it uses a lot less water, but grows and buds up just fine
